JUNIOR RACING PROGRAM
AKA - Possum Run Ski Team
All skiers between the ages of 5 to 18, of intermediate ability or better, are welcome to participate in the Junior Racing Program. This is a volunteer program designed to assist junior skiers in developing good fundamentals and racing skills. Joining the Junior Racing Program is FREE but each participant must have a valid lift ticket or season pass and are responsible for providing their own equipment, clothing and transportation.
Racing practice sessions are held on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m., weather and conditions permitting starting after the New Year. Although a racer is not required to attend all practice sessions, it is expected that racers enrolled in the program who are at the ski area during practice times shall participate in the session. All racers are subject to the rules and regulations of the ski area and the coaching staff reserves the right to exclude a skier from the program for any misconduct or offensive behavior. Practice courses are reserved exclusively for junior ski team participants, parents and coaches.
